Shopify

Every online store can now have their own AI shopping assistant from Shopify Inbox. When your assistant recognizes a customer from other Shopify stores, it uses their purchase history and preferences to recommend the best products on yours. It’s like having a sales associate on call for every customer, right on your store. https://lnkd.in/gxgNz9T5

This is how search should work: every shopper gets recommendations shaped by their unique taste and purchase history. That’s how search on Shop works now. Less like a traditional search bar, more like a personalized shopping assistant. With every conversation, it gets smarter about what you like and who you’re shopping for.

Commerce used to need a destination. With AI, discovery can happen everywhere: while planning a trip, reading a horoscope, watching a film, picking out a board game, or styling a room. For the Spring ’26 Edition, we built five shopping apps in just a few days that do exactly those things, turning everyday moments into shoppable ones. Each app was built by a small team on top of the Catalog API and Universal Commerce Protocol. But these apps aren’t the point. It’s that they show what’s possible with Catalog and UCP. As code becomes easier to create, the threshold for who gets to build commerce has dropped. And for merchants, anything built on Catalog is a new surface where their products can show up.

Agentic has a new home in the Shopify admin. More shopping is happening in AI channels like ChatGPT and Copilot. If you’re on Shopify, your products are already there. Now you can manage all your channels in one place. Track performance, see which search queries your products appear in, and get tips to improve your rankings. https://lnkd.in/gKMDTmbw

The Spring ’26 Edition is here. Shopify is the only platform merchants need to sell everywhere. Shopify Catalog puts your products wherever shoppers are. The new Agentic section in the admin shows how you’re performing across AI channels. The Universal Commerce Protocol and Catalog API give developers the tools they need to build agentic shopping experiences.
